Ninja Gaiden 2 Coming to Nintendo Wii

Ninja Gaiden 2 is coming to the Nintendo Wii. Yes, you read that correctly. However, your short-term eyes may deceive you a bit, because it's actually the original Ninja Gaiden 2 from the NES, subtitled "The Dark Sword of Chaos."

Ninja Gaiden 2: The Dark Sword of Chaos is one of three games headed to the Wii's Virtual Console today at 9am PST.

NIntendo: what ya talking about I also had an exclusive Ninja Gaiden 2 so which one is Ninja Gaiden 2?
M$: Damn we are so Fack!

[cooke15]

even if it was a new ninja gaiden, you basically said Ninja Gaiden for Xbox looked like ass.. And Wii is more powerful than Xbox.

[Bleem360]

lol @ the twat

[Bleem360]

lol @ the twat

[DZNetworks]

Its not the new updated version, just the original game for the NES.

[Sevir04]

LOL!!!! thats funny read before your xbox fan heart explodes you'd have sen that it's actually the nes games that are being placed on the virtual console. ^^ someone just tried to make your hearts jump a bit.. lol!!! that was rich. i figured it was the Nes titles that heading to the wii's VC, tecmo even had it in there press release

[eclipsegryph]

The common scenario on the Internet of calling someone a retard and then typing like one is something that I will never be able to understand.

[Sevir04]

you aren"t worth the effort so i'll leave you alone. Good day. douche...

[eclipsegryph]

Yes, a very mature man you must be. Listen, mate, I'm not defending "the worst" by any means, but even you have to notice the... subtleties of insulting someone's intelligence and then acting in a very similar manner. Just think about it before you reply next time, okay?

Edit to poopface1: Of course he was right about "the worst" making an ignorant remark. He could have left it right there, but instead went on to disrespect him, all whilst sounding like an ignorant fool himself. Why not simply correct "the worst" and then move on with it? Why add the rudeness?

[poopface1]

well eclipse id say sever is right seeing as the person he was comenting about didnt even read the article before going on about how 360 is doomed lol.

[eclipsegryph]

If I didn't already own it for the NES, I'd buy this all over again. Those first three Ninja Gaiden games were the bane of my early gaming existence. Great times.

Edit: Also, I'm surprised as hell as to how this made the front page of N4G. A completely misleading headline alongside a completely inaccurate photo all so that someone can masturbate to people falling for his ruse. It doesn't really give any credit to N4G as a legitimate gaming news aggregate.

Edit Edit: And since I'm here, what is with all of the rude backlash against the people falling for this? I mean, a little bit more attention to detail would have prevented them from saying anything in the first place, but for crying out loud, show a little respect, people!

Edit to poopface1: I understand your reasoning, but it is false logic. You ask "why respect him", whilst I ask "why DISrespect him"? Instead of glossing over the ignorant comment, people have taken the time to intentionally attack someone and injure them in a disrespectful way. And to add to the farce, they have done so in ways that give no credibility to their remarks in any way, shape or form. Their time has been wasted because what they wrote will not be taken seriously. Not to mention that there was probably something better that could have been done with their time aside from making rude, snide remarks at an unknown person on the Internet.

Everyone is so quick to point out other people's mistakes, that they don't take the time to observe their own. It's just something I've noticed.

[poopface1]

why why respect someone who makes a stupod comment about an article they didnt even read.

[lib9]

Head almost exploded right there, good job contributor .. in making the title a "little tricky".

[PopEmUp]

This is hilarious since Ninja Gaiden 2 was to be exclusive to x-box 360 and now they say it on wii man that is great news for x-box 360 fanboy, and what do you know mass effect will end up in the wii as well or even Alan wake since they point out that game as well

[Darkiewonder]

Goes to you.

[PopEmUp]

Are you telling me that you have granted a stupid award, congratulation

[razer]

Everybody say hi to Mr. Stupid..

PopEmUp you need to learn to read before you post PS3tard.

[poopface1]

It was a joke, the wii is geting the orinigal NG2 that was on the NES....not the ultra bloody 360 game

[americanGTA]

it was the one for the 360

[midgard229]

idiots who dont read thought the new NG2 was comin to wii, lol. whats the big deal, the original xbox ninja gaiden has all 3 snes ninja gaidens in it

[midgard229]

what idiot disagrees with what i said? u cant, it is on the original xbox, go play it ur self, its secret but its in there, man nintendo fans with disagree for things that are true lol,and i wasnt even bashing

[eclipsegryph]

I am the one who disagreed with you for your abuse and bastardization of English grammar, and in the nitpicky sense that there was only 1 SNES Ninja Gaiden release - the cartridge just happened to have all 3 NES games on it.

[poopface1]

what a let donw huh...I waw wondering how they were gonna have al the blood and limbs on the wii(not alowed)

[eclipsegryph]

Though I may later regret asking this in a serious manner, I just have to know - why did you mention that violence on the Wii would be "not allowed"? While Nintendo, as a company, remains the strictest game console manufacturer when it comes to censorship, their reins have been loosened remarkably since their SNES days, and there are violent games for the console already available, and soon to be released.

[cooke15]

hmm No More Heroes, Manhunt 2, Scarface, Godfather, Mortal Kombat, Redsteel 2 say Hi

[Wii60PS3DSPSP]

A Ninja Gaiden game using the Wii's motion controls would be kinda fun though.

[Prismo_Fillusion]

LOL THIS GAME WILL LOOK LIKE CRAP ON THE WII.
HUAHEUAHEUHAUE.

No, seriously. Take bubbles away from everyone who didn't even read the summary of the article at the top of this page.

[mesh1]

ps3 fanbabys never give up with their doctored headlines remember MASS EFFECT IS INCOMING.CRY more ps3 fanboys

[Wii60_FTW]

hahaha., u got me

[DeckUKold]

this is funny and it caught idiots haha

[Wii60_FTW]

sure as hell caught you, dipshit ;)

[ChickeyCantor]

nothing beats the oldschool ninja gaiden.
ninja gaiden on the Xbox was cool but I (read: I so its an opinion) lost interest after the second level.

this one is a must have =D

[texism]

YOU BASTARDS!

I spilled coffee on my pants!

[midgard229]

so eclipse ur saying that wii has to pay seperatly for a game that originally had all 3 games from the begining??? LOL!!!! poor wii, like i jsaid just play it on the original NG black lol

[TheUltimatePS3Fanboy]

And second of all Ninja Gaiden 2 still can suck my balls.
